By LEA SKENE (Associated Press) BALTIMORE (AP) — A tugboat pushing a fuel barge was the first vessel to use an alternate channel to bypass the wreckage of Baltimore’s collapsed Francis Scott Key Bridge, which had blocked traffic along the vital port’s main shipping channel. The barge supplying jet fuel to the Department of Defense left late Monday and was destined for Delaware’s Dover Air Force Base, though officials have said the temporary channel is open primarily to vessels that are helping with the cleanup effort. Some barges and tugs that have been stuck in the Port of Baltimore since the collapse are also scheduled to pass through the channel. Officials said they’re working on a second channel on the southwest side of the main channel that will allow for deeper draft vessels, but they didn’t say when that might open. Gov. Wes Moore is set Tuesday to visit one of two centers that the Small Business Administration opened in the area to help companies get loans to assist them with losses caused by the disruption of the bridge collapse. In Annapolis, a hearing is

ISTANBUL (AP) — A fire at an Istanbul nightclub during renovations on Tuesday killed at least 29 people, officials and reports said. Several people, including managers of the club, were detained for questioning. At least one person was being treated at a hospital, the Istanbul governor’s office said in a statement. The Masquerade nightclub, which was closed for renovations, was on the ground and basement floors of a 16-story residential building in the Besiktas district on the European side of the city bisected by the Bosphorus. The fire was extinguished. Gov. Davut Gul told reporters at the scene that the cause of the fire was under investigation and the victims were believed to be involved in the renovation work. Some of the victims died in hospitals where they were rushed in ambulances, private NTV television reported. Authorities detained six people for questioning, including managers of the club and one person in charge of the renovations, Gul’s office said. The nightclub was closed for the holy Muslim month of Ramadan and its owners were trying to complete the renovation work in time for next week’s Eid

DEIR AL-BALAH, Gaza Strip — An Israeli airstrike killed seven aid workers with World Central Kitchen, leading the charity to suspend delivery Tuesday of vital food aid to Gaza, where Israel’s offensive has pushed hundreds of thousands of Palestinians to the brink of starvation. Cyprus, which has played a key role in trying to establish a sea route to bring food to the territory, said ships that recently arrived were turning back – with some 240 tons of undelivered aid. Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu acknowledged that the country’s forces had carried out the “unintended strike” on “innocent people in the Gaza Strip.” He says officials are looking into the strike and would “do everything for this not to happen again.” Footage showed the bodies, several wearing protective gear with the charity’s logo, at a hospital in the central Gaza town of Deir al-Balah. Those killed include three British nationals, an Australian, a Polish national, an American-Canadian dual citizen and a Palestinian, according to hospital records. World Central Kitchen, a food charity founded by celebrity chef José Andrés, was key to the recently opened sea

Google will delete billions of data records as part of a settlement for a lawsuit that accused the tech giant of improperly tracking the web-browsing habits of users who thought they were browsing the internet privately.

Tuesday, April 2, 2024 1:45PM 6abc Philadelphia 24/7 Live Stream Action News, AccuWeather and Entertainment UPS will become the primary air cargo provider for the United States Postal Service. The Atlanta shipping company said Monday that it had received an air cargo contract from the U.S. Postal Service that significantly expands an existing partnership between the two. UPS will move the majority of air cargo in the U.S. for the postal service following a transition period, according to UPS. Financial terms of the deal were not disclosed. USPS’s current air cargo contract with FedEx Corp. is set to expire in late September. The agency said in a statement that its contract with UPS will be for a minimum of five and a half years.

FRESNO, Calif. (KFSN) — The search for the next superintendent to lead Fresno Unified School District continues to be contentious as board members debate whether it search should be broadened. Surrounded by city council members, union heads, and other community leaders, Fresno Unified School Board President Susan Wittrup stood before cameras Tuesday. She made another plea to the community, asking them to speak up about the ongoing search to replace outgoing Superintendent Bob Nelson. Her press conference came the day before the board is set to interview only internal candidates for the position in a closed door session. “Fresno Unified should consider external candidates for two reasons: to ensure the best qualified candidates have an opportunity to apply and be considered and to validate the selection of an internal candidate who had to compete with other strong candidates to get the job,” explained Wittrup. She claims the decision to solely focus on internal candidates came from misleading information by the contracted consulting group, Leadership Associates, on information gathered at community listening sessions. Wittrup is asking community members to sign a petition to open up the

SAN JOSE – The San Jose Sharks are having their worst season by points percentage in nearly 30 years. No NHL team has scored fewer goals — or given up more. They’ve had three losing streaks of at least nine games. Attendance totals have been among the smallest in the league. It’s been a hard season for all involved. But amid the carnage, the Sharks appear to have found another piece to build around. A big piece. Winger Klim Kostin scored again Monday in the Sharks’ 4-2 loss to the Seattle Kraken at SAP Center, giving him eight points in 12 games since he came to San Jose on March 8 in a trade with the Detroit Red Wings. Kostin, at 6-foot-4 and 232 pounds, is the Sharks’ largest player and fits right into general manager Mike Grier’s stated intention of building a team that’s hard to play against and in the opposition’s face. Certainly, Kostin hasn’t been afraid to throw his weight around, with 12 hits in his last six games. “He’s a big player. He makes plays, he’s physical, he’s good around the

Not having visited River Park in a long time, I was surprised, shocked even, to read about law enforcement and other agencies cleaning up “encampments,” removing tons of trash left by “campers,” aka homeless squatters on public property. The location shown in the photo in Friday’s paper was unclear but, in my 36 years living and working in Red Bluff, I’ve not seen such filth and neglect in River Park. For many years, it was a refreshing spot to park and walk when I needed stress relief close to the office, where I held down a desk, taking calls and clients. Locals enjoyed sitting at picnic tables or chasing thrown disks or balls. Apparently, the “blobs” of homeless scofflaws and layabouts spread like the namesake scary movie “The Blob.” Just to review, we can thank, or curse, the 9th Appellate Court for telling all under its jurisdiction that, as a result of a big-bucks Washington, DC law firm telling authorities in Boise, ID, they had no right to force “campers” off public property—homeless people can’t always be told to move. Even worse, a more recent
